Mt Whitney Zone Forums General Discussion Whitney Main Trail Conditions 2016 (Out-of-Date)

Here's an 8-minute video posted on YouTube by Rebo (Randy Berton), PCT hiker with his group of hikers, May 28-29, 2016. (This is his second year in a row hiking the PCT.)

They climbed Whitney from Guitar Lake in their PCT hiking shoes, and it appears with microspikes. They spent the night in the summit hut -- the last minute shows the conditions at dawn on the 29th.


These have to be the hardiest hikers you can find. 750 miles from the Calif-Mexico border already.
